Tony,

How about the brute force method?

HSEND LIST TTOC(153818) which should give you the list of active datasets on 
the tape, then HDEL of each dataset, emptying the tape?  Once the tape is 
empty, HSM and CA1 should just scratch the tape without requiring a mount of it.

Fails. :-(

Issued:
HSEND DELVOL 153818 MIGRATION(PURGE)
Response was:

ARC0260I (CONT.) VOLUME

For the one of the volumes:
Issued:

Response was:
ARC0378I TTOC RECORD AND TAPE MEDIA CONTENTS ARE INCONSISTENT ON TAPE VOLUME 
ARC0378I (CONT.) 152215. TAPE VOLUME CANNOT BE DELETED, VALID DATA SETS MAY 
ARC0378I (CONT.) EXIST ON THE VOLUME
